The only reason I can think of to not have at least one of those E3 games released with the system is they wanted to gauge people's reactions to the gamepad and system before delivering their classics. Anyways, I'm sure that topic has been hashed enough times. As someone who adopted the Wii U very recently this waterfall of games leading up and into the new year isn't such a bad thing. Gives me enough time to enjoy it all without feeling rushed to get the next hot release. So this E3 was solid from my perspective. Nothing mind bottling. Just solid.

(For whatever reason there's a ridiculous amount of unfounded optimism in me that Nintendo really wants to bring all it's characters to life in HD and so throughout the next few years we will see every single one of it's classic franchises revived.)
